Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a very active research field that aims to provide simple encoders, needed by
many low resources applications. Unfortunately, all the proposed implementations of this type of coding claim
that there is no way to design such a system as...

This contribution presents the results of a work in progress, attempting to use discrete curvature for triangle meshes
in order to automatically identify specific structures in remote sensing data. Specifically, the focus was on determining
isolated trees, on the basis of data acquired&...

Fashion design expresses modernness, reflects changes in a society, economy, politics and culture. As a result, fashion also
changes very fast and distinctively, and for that reason the improvement and creativity are indispensable. Nowadays, there are
numerous fashion design systems/tools. H...

Liveness tests are techniques employed by face recognition authentication systems, aiming at verifying that a live
face rather than a photo is standing in front of the system camera. In this paper, we study the resilience of a standard
liveness test under imposter photo attack...

Studying links between phenotype/genotype and agricultural practices is one of the main topics in agronomy
research. Phenotypes can be characterized by informations like age, sex of animals/plants and more and more
often with the help of image analysis of their morphology. From...

The paper presents Immersive 3D Visualization Lab (at the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and
Informatics at Gdańsk University of Technology in Poland) and its applications prepared after its launch in
December 2014. The main device of the lab is a virtual reality cubic ...

In this paper, we propose a new method to solve a problem of crystal lattice parameter identification. The
developed method is based on applying the gradient steepest descent method. The two algorithms of crystal lattice
parameter identification on the basis of the developed method...

This paper discuss an intelligent space concepts, goals and developments. The review presents an analysis of seven
intelligent meeting rooms, equipment and developed services. One of the main goals of intelligent space is the
development of proactive services. Realization of such types ...

We present a medical image processing plug-in in this paper. Our plug-in uses Blender’s environment and adds
tools for the medical image processing and 3D model reconstructions and measurements. There are several software
solutions to provide these tasks, two of which are used for&...

In this paper approaches to the evaluation of Software Visualization for Parallel Computing are considered on the
examples of representation of call graphs and execution traces of parallel programs. The concept of visualization
metaphor is described. The visualization metaphors using to depi...

The work deals with an application of the 3D-printing to full-size building the reachable sets in control problems.
As an example, a simple car model is considered with nonlinear dynamics, three-dimensional phase vector, and
scalar control constrained by modulus (Dubins car). Current st...

The COAST project at CEA/IRFU at Saclay involves astrophysicists and software engineers developing
simulation codes in magneto-hydrodynamics and generic tools for data structuration and visualization. Thanks to
the new generation of massively parallel mainframes, computing in astrophysics had made...

This work presents a new spatial verification technique
for image similarity search. The proposed algorithm
evaluates the geometry of the detected local keypoints
by building segments connecting pairs of points and analyzing
their intersections in a 2D plane. We show that
these intersec...

We present a new audio user interface for communication means based on automatic sound zoning (ASZ). Highly
directive audio reproduction and capturing devices are combined with the output of a newest-generation depth sensor.
We particularly use parametric loudspeaker and microphone arrays fo...

The project ISAC@OTH-AW will focus on developing an innovative expert system for data visualization and
optimization to produce better manufacturing processes. A mandatory part of the project is the appropriation of
industry 4.0 technology benefits, like efficiency, quality and time to marke...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a hardware-software embedded system for face
recognition applications in images and/or videos. The system has hardware components to speed up the face
detection and recognition stages. It is a system suitable for applications requiri...

For long-range infrared systems, a new method is proposed in this paper to estimate the shutdown point of
ballistic missile. In order to reduce the effect of model error and positioning error of observation point on
estimation accuracy, two successive fitting corrections are used...

Virtual reality-simulated environments have been used for training for more than 40 years. In recent years, an
active development of 3D technologies dealing with medical training, planning and guidance has become an
increasingly important area of interest in both research and health-care....

Creating 2D and 3D models in CAD and following creation of drawings are standard procedures for constructing
in the current industrial practice. Most models of industrially produced machine parts can be made by basic
processes of modeling using construction or hybrid methods. Listed...

3D culling techniques are well established to improve rendering performance, but cannot be applied to 2D games
in which the scene is composed of partially transparent textures in a known layer arrangement. Commonly, 2D
rendering is achieved in a simple back-to-front blending scheme....
